IV. Read the following and do as directed.
The outbreak of the Covid-19 has negatively affected fashion industries in developing countries.
Like other Asian countries, Viet Nam is under a lot of pressure to thrive the fashion industry by carrying
out reforms after the pandemic. Many people realize that fast fashion trends are not environmentally
friendly, and they have turned to garments that cause no harm to the environment.
The concept of sustainable fashion in Viet Nam is almost too new as there are a few organizations
working on recycling and restoration of old clothes. The country’s economic development has led to the
3
trend that customers are inclined to choose cheap and mass-produced clothing items but quickly reject
them. As a result, every year tons of clothes are thrown away in Viet Nam.
It is hoped that the situation will change soon. Some fashion designers begin to make clothes from
durable materials such as natural cotton, bamboo and recycled polyester. These materials do not wear out
easily and are strong enough for consumers to use over a long period of time. Moreover, local consumers,
especially the youth, are willing to pay more for sustainable goods. Nearly 70% of surveyed consumers
said that they chose to use eco-friendly clothing products which could save water and electricity.

IV. Read the following and do as directed.
The outbreak of the Covid-19 has negatively affected fashion industries in developing countries.
Like other Asian countries, Viet Nam is under a lot of pressure to thrive the fashion industry by carrying
out reforms after the pandemic. Many people realize that fast fashion trends are not environmentally
friendly, and they have turned to garments that cause no harm to the environment.
The concept of sustainable fashion in Viet Nam is almost too new as there are a few organizations
working on recycling and restoration of old clothes. The country’s economic development has led to the 2
trend that customers are inclined to choose cheap and mass-produced clothing items but quickly reject
them. As a result, every year tons of clothes are thrown away in Viet Nam.
It is hoped that the situation will change soon. Some fashion designers begin to make clothes from
durable materials such as natural cotton, bamboo and recycled polyester. These materials do not wear out
easily and are strong enough for consumers to use over a long period of time. Moreover, local consumers,
especially the youth, are willing to pay more for sustainable goods. Nearly 70% of surveyed consumers
said that they chose to use eco-friendly clothing products which could save water and electricity. True/False Questions:
